Comment from Linda Bickston
Zily, I just wanted to say that your photo makes it look as though you happened upon this African wild dog in the bush. It is an excellent shot of a k-9 breed, that we seldom have an opportunity to see. The focus is clear, the lighting is perfect. Wonderful work, girl.

Very nice picture, like the colors, sharp, good light, contrast and depth. The blurred b/g make outstanding the face and body, nice framing, thanks to sharing.

A very fine shot with great texture in the fur and penetrating eyes. I like the composition and the shallow depth of field.

Nice photo of this wild dog that's been transplanted to Australia. Your Dingo's are another species of wild dogs that are similar to these guys. The photo is sharp and the exposure is good. Nice shooting and thanks for sharing it.

A wonderful head shot on this wild one that does not look like a happy camper. Very good focus, frame and exposure to show the rugged details.

"Their only known predators are humans?" In America, ranchers kill wolves to protect their sheep and cows. Humans are destroying everything for their own selfish "needs". Thanks for this a super shot. Cheers, JR.

Comment from OLIVER23
I find this to be a well composed capture that is well-cropped and framed. I like the way you fuzzed out the background to give more emphasis to the foreground animal. The contrasting is so well done that you can count hairs on this animal and see his chin pop out from the fine darkness underneath. Excellent shot! Donīt change a thing.

Lovely capture of this beautiful African wild dog. He has a lovely fluffy coat but you can see wariness or hardness in his eyes. I like the pose you caught.

Lighting and focus very good showing excellent detail. Interesting notes accompanying this too. Very nice composition. Suzanne

What a dramatic picture of a "dog" which at first looks like no other breed I have seen...certainly one would have to be very understanding to consider it as a per altho' it there is no doubting its intelligence
